Situated between Fort Lauderdale and Miami is Hollywood, Florida. There is much to explore and do in the area, including hiking, boating, fishing or simply hanging out on the beach. For people who like to travel by RV, there are a variety of parks that allow month-to-month rental of sites with full hookups for water and electricity.

Sun Life Stadium

If being near NFL football is important to you, it is possible to find monthly rates at Sunny Palm RV Park. The Miami Dolphins, the University of Miami Hurricanes and the Florida Marlins MLB baseball team call the Sun Life Stadium (formerly Dolphin Stadium) home. The beautiful beaches are only five minutes away from Sunny Palm. It is possible to go snorkeling and sport fishing within minutes from the RV park.

Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital

Just two miles north of Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital is the Topeekeegee Yungee Park, also called T.Y. Park. The name means "gathering place," and T.Y. Park can be just that with its basketball courts and newly paved pathways. One of the newest improvements is a hard-bottom, zero-depth entry pool as well as new trees to replace those lost in the storms of 2005. Monthly rentals are available with a deposit.

Oleta River State Park

At Oleta River State Park, located in Miami in the Biscayne Bay, it is possible to go hiking and kayaking, with equipment rentals in the park. Only 10 miles to the north is Grice RV Park in Hollywood. With 37 sites available for monthly rental, Grice RV Park allows pets and has full hookups and a patio. Plus there are laundry facilities on-site.

Golfing

One thing that the Hollywood/Fort Lauderdale area has going for it is a number of golf courses. Within miles of the C. B. Smith Park are at least three golf courses to challenge your skills. The park is situated on 299 acres and has 71 sites. Guests will find an All Golf Center along with a water park and areas for large scale special events. Full hookups for RVs are available and pets can be on a leash at this campground.

Shopping

If shopping is your favorite form of exercise, plenty can be done at the Broward Shopping Mall. Just miles away is the Twin Lakes Travel Park which has a number of amenities to make long term camping worthwhile. There is cable TV hookup, patio pad and laundry facilities.
